Current status

The current status section is a table showing the current status of the WAN. For example, for a Frame Relay configuration:

 

 

Current Frame

Relay Status

 

--DLCIs In Use--

Bytes Rx----

Bytes Tx---

Frames Rx---

Frames Tx---

FECNs+BECNs----

0

0

0

0

0

0

DLCIs In Use: Shows the number of Frame Relay DLCIs being used, if any.

Bytes Rx: Shows the number of bytes received.

Bytes Tx: Shows the number of bytes transmitted.

Frames Rx: Shows the number of frames received.

Frames Tx: Shows the number of frames transmitted.

FECNs+BECNs: Forward Explicit Congestion Notification (FECN) and Backward Explicit Congestion Notification (BECN) bits in data frames. These are used to determine if traffic becomes sufficiently congested to cause packets to be discarded.

For a profile with PPP data link encapsulation the Current Status section appears slightly different:

 

Current WAN Connection Status

 

---Profile Name-------

Rate---

%Use-Remote Address----

Est.-More Info----------

ISP

57.6

10 IP 92.163.4.1

Lcl NAT 192.163.100.6

Profile Name: Lists the name of the connection profile being used, if any.

Rate: Shows the data transmission rate.

%Use: Indicates the average percent utilization of the maximum capacity of the channels in use for the connection.

Remote Address: Shows the IP address of the connected remote router if the connection is using IP. Otherwise, shows the IPX address of the connected remote router, if using IPX.

Est: Indicates whether the connection was locally (“Lcl”) or remotely (“Rmt”) established.

More Info: Indicates, in order of priority, the NAT address in use for this connection, the IPX address in use (if IP is also in use), or the ISDN caller identification (if available).

Status lights

This section shows the current real-time status of the Netopia R5000 Series Router’s status lights (LEDs). It is useful for remotely monitoring the router’s status. The Quick View screen’s arrangement of LEDs corresponds to the physical arrangement of LEDs on the router.
